Tickets "at the door" - until sold out
  1. Festive Overture in A Op 96 - Dmitry Shostakovich
  2. Concerto for Piano and Orchestra in F - George Gershwin
  3. Pictures at an Exhibition - Modest Mussorgsky, arranged by Maurice Ravel

Shostakovich's sparkling Festive Overture heralds the return of conductor Sian Edwards to the Kirklees Concert Season.

Joanna MacGregor’s peerless skill as a classical pianist has always been animated by her openness to other genres, making her the ideal soloist for Gershwin’s jazz and blues-inflected Piano Concerto which pulsates with the syncopated rhythms of the Roaring Twenties.

Completing this vibrant programme is the popular orchestral showpiece Pictures at an Exhibition, with the orchestra under Edwards’s baton wringing vivid colours from Ravel’s magical orchestration of Mussorgsky’s suite.

“It’s conductor Sian Edwards and the orchestra who are the chief storytellers here… this was one hell of a concert”
The Spectator on Sian Edwards and the Orchestra of Opera North, Bluebeard’s Castle (Huddersfield Town Hall, 2019)
